KK
Practice Specialist at a government with 1-10 employees
Cloud-based testing has simplified remote mobile validation and provides flexible device coverage
I was not impressed with how detailed their analytics and logs are from LambdaTest. The solution we were testing is being used because many of us are working from home. It was easy to implement because with a real phone, we have to bring a real phone to each person. Since three years ago, many employees have been working from home, so we were trying to find a solution for this challenge. We had no need to exploit the information for the analytics generated in the background. The purpose was simply to make it easy for our employees to access a phone. The downsides I noticed include that the pricing was very good, but the visual quality of the image sometimes suffers. The contrast on a real iPhone provides better contrast than with the cloud solution. The only aspect that was less favorable than on a real phone was the contrast of the color.

Test Automation Architect at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Integrated collaboration with automated test management has improved our agile workflows and continuously supports quality reporting
Visual Studio Test Professional could be improved as earlier we had flexibility in automation testing with TFS, which became a bit difficult moving to Azure DevOps. Additionally, in Visual Studio Code, we have an agent mode for GitHub Copilot, which is very helpful in testing or development phases, while Visual Studio's GitHub Copilot is a bit tricky and sometimes does not provide my desired output.For future improvements, I would like to see prompt fixing, as currently, if something goes wrong in Visual Studio, the fixing options are not always correct. If that intelligence is embedded, it would be very helpful.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"HyperExecute adds significant speed to execution, enhancing the overall testing process."
"The most valuable features are that it's essentially on-demand, and you only focus on getting the code that needs to be executed without having to worry about the OS, hardware, etc."
"Stability-wise, I have not experienced any downtime or other performance issues."
"LambdaTest supports multiple platforms like iOS across different devices and enables real-time testing."
"Using LambdaTest, we could run all our functionality tests across various browsers, OS, and resolutions."
"LambdaTest was handy and easy enough to save us a lot of time, effort, and money."
"LambdaTest offers geolocation testing in automation, which is amazing!"
"The slow nature of a cloud platform was compensated with parallel testing, and now we are able to finish our testing job faster than it was before COVID."
"One of the best documentation in the world."
"The whole suite is made for .NET development."
"The tool is flexible and easy to manage. We use it since it is scalable and easy to use. It integrates with solutions."
"Searching is extensive and helpful."
"We are satisfied with technical support. Communicating with them is very simple. We also have a lot of online resources to check and to study and to train our team with. The documentation is very clear and readily available."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the speed of the application, it is a well-documented, complete product, and reasonably priced."
"Visual Studio Test Professional is highly valuable because it provides extensive extensions and plugins that assist in measuring code quality."
"The ability to quickly make your own components has been valuable."
 

Cons

"Analytics could be better because as of now, it gives basic information on test status and build status."
"Responsive testing UI is a bit cluttered, whereas the LT browser is much better to use."
"Performing automation testing from UI is a little slow and could be improved."
"Load flow compared to other stacks needs improvement."
"The scalability is good with Amazon, but IBM had some issues."
"LambdaTest needs to have native application testing, which would be a great help to my team."
"The execution reporting can be improved for better integration between automation execution and accessibility platform reporting."
"If possible to simulate the finger pinch, it would make it more realistic."
"The solution is quite expensive."
"Visual Studio Test Professional is expensive."
"Over the years, I haven't identified any specific enhancements that I desire; Visual Studio has consistently met my requirements seamlessly and flawlessly."
"The documentation is limited."
"It is not good in terms of performance. When you open Visual Studio, you have to wait for a while to process your code. It uses a lot of resources and has a lot of features. If we could disable some of the features, it would be lighter and faster to use. Nowadays, for some of the projects, we use VS Code for JavaScript or Python. VS Code is very light and easy to use, whereas, in Visual Studio, we have to wait because it takes time to compile or run a project. It has a lot of competitors in terms of performance, such as Intelligent ID. Intelligent ID is very easy to use. It has many features, and it is lighter to use than Visual Studio. In terms of error handling, sometimes, it shows an error before you finish your code, which can be improved. It would be good if it has a version for Linux. I use VS Code on Linux, but I am not sure if Visual Studio has a version for Linux."
"Visual Studio Test Professional needs to improve its scalability."
"The service right now is far too expensive. You need to pay per user."
"One of the problems with this solution is you need to be highly technically skilled to operate it, it is not for everyone."

"The pricing could be made cheaper."
